Wonder if it’s a change to silicon hairspring and increase in power reserve

[PepsiBezel]

Bioceramic?

[Pablito]

Wonder if somedays it will at least be able to last what is marketed on current power reserve..

All my Omegas (4 Speedies and 4 Seamasters) last longer than the stated power reserve by at least an hour when fully wound. If yours doesn't, you should have it checked.

[amphr1]

I'm going to guess that it's a 5 day power reserve.

[alllexandru]

That’s definitely a spring so has to do something with it, more PR and / or other spring perks

[subtona]

How about a tiny gasket for improved WR.

[liberalclown]

First they silently upgraded the clasp and they are changing the spring now? I wonder if they will offer free/charged upgrades for the 3861 owners during their service.

[Sandpit]

More changes to the 3861 already? Surely not.

[1William]

Interesting. I look forward to seeing the changes.

This will be a dark side of the moon. 10th anniversary?

[tdk133]

High beat (36,000) with silicon escapement.

On the Omega website if you continue to click on that picture of the mainspring, eventually the number 10 comes up. I spoke to a lady at the Boutique on 1/25. She was coy about it.

New Speedmaster Super Racing and new spring that allows accuracy of 0 to +2s a day

Seems like a great innovation and of course and nice looking watch, I really like it.

Discover the first watch in the world to include OMEGA’s Spirate™ System, with a revolutionary new spiral that allows for ultra-fine rate adjustments to achieve certified precision of only 0/+2 seconds a day. Look closely. This visual tribute to OMEGA’s 2013 anti-magnetic masterpiece offers a clear view of the new mechanism through the sapphire crystal caseback.

Not digging this release

[Qristian]

Just another Speedmaster. Not interesting. I don`t think mechanical watches need to be that accurate. That is why we have Quartz watches.

and what about before quartz watches? Was it sufficient to just say “meh close enough” when timing a dive, planning a meeting time, timing legs of your expedition etc. The innovation in the past came because of need for more accurate timekeeping. While no one “needs” a mechanical watch anymore, it’s that history that drives the very reason why these brands are doing what they’re doing. If you want jewelry exclusively, get a diamond encrusted bracelet to pair with your G-shock

[liberalclown]

More like massive device, tiny change.

[OverGeared]

Interesting innovation; not sure if it warranted three weeks of secretive hype.

Definitely not , the metas 3861 already performed excellent in terms of accuracy so don’t see why so much secret for 0/2 sec….

[ButtButt]

I like the colour scheme, but 44.25mm seems rather large (and nearly 15mm thick). Will probably have to see this one in person.

[DoricSpiker]

Looks cool and the innovation is to be welcomed I think.

[ap1]

Too large for me , I like honeycomb and black yellow though

[m3fanatic75]

I love it!

[Nodzex]

Are you guys joking now?
Since when was it not good to have more precise watch?
Why is everyone hyping Rolex for +-2secs if precision is not important!
Woow, if Rolex came up with this, noone would stop talking for s decade!

[nr1416]

Meh. To thick even if you can pull off the 44.255mm case. All this hype and it still has 10 hours less of a power reserve then the 23 year old movement in the Daytona.

The accuracy is cool but how many people are buying a mechanical watch of the accuracy.

[eskiserkan]

Yawn…
